Given:
Cost of two donuts and three cookies = $3.30
Cost of five donuts and two cookies = $4.95
To find:
The cost of each donut.
Solution:
Let x be the cost of each donut and y be the cost of each cookie.
Cost of two donuts and three cookies = $3.30
...(i)
Cost of five donuts and two cookies = $4.95
...(ii)
Multiply equation (i) by 2.
...(iii)
Multiply equation (ii) by 3.
...(iv)
Subtracting (iii) from (iv), we get
Divide both sides by 11.
Therefore, the cost of each donut is $0.75.
